Most human-caused methane emissions stem from three sectors — agriculture (40%), energy (35%), and waste (20%) — so a focus on action in these sectors can help to stave off immediate warming impacts. #GlobalMethanePledge #ActOnClimate

We need to win 2 races to stay within reach of 1.5°C — the sprint to reduce methane emissions 30% by 2030 and the marathon to net-zero decarbonization by 2050. We have the necessary tools to curb methane this decade. We just need political will and finance to quickly back it up.

“We’re not going to have as many workers downtown as we had before the pandemic," said D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser. “So this project, converting from office to residential, we think can actually be a win for the city’s bottom line.”

If you work on climate or environment *anything*, it's so important to read about gas, coal, oil, and commodity markets. If you don't, how could you ever posit an alternative?

In D.C. this year, 16 youths have been fatally shot. More than 80 have been shot and survived. Both of those numbers have increased compared to the same time last year. It's impossible to describe the impact that violence, but I tried here. (1/6)

Shootings of youths are soaring in D.C., vexing city leaders
Sixteen juveniles have been fatally shot so far this year. The grim tally is more than double the number of youth killed by bullets at the same time in 2021.
